The local dimension

As the General Election gets nearer and dominates the national media, people may overlook the local elections that are being held as well.

The key priorities of the South Gloucestershire Liberal Democrats are set out in the Liberal Democrat Vision for South Gloucestershire, our manifesto for the 2015 Local Elections. The priorities are set out under five main headings:

• Ensuring fairness and empowering communities
• A healthier and more caring place to live
• Helping to get South Gloucestershire moving
• Keeping our area green for future generations
• A stronger local economy that will benefit everyone 

The full manifesto is available to read here.

Your South Glos candidates are:

Charfield ward - John O'Neill
Frampton Cotterell ward - Pat and Dave Hockey
Ladden Brook ward - Duncan Goodland
Westerleigh ward - Claire Young
